Special tools, testers and auxiliary items required
Scheme 376
- Side Window Installation Tool V.A.G 1739
Distinctive features can be
- Low window tension.
- Wind noise.
- Window rattles with convertible top open.
- Window runs poorly into roof frame seal.
Scheme 377
Check window to see if it is parallel
- Close convertible top.
- Raise all windows.
- Close both doors.
- Using a steel ruler, measure gap dimension between door window and side window.
- Gap must be parallel, dimension - a - and dimension - b - = 9-10 mm.
- Deviation from parallel: 0.5 mm.
Scheme 378
Side window height and parallelism, adjusting
- Open convertible top.
- Remove side panel trim --> «70 - INTERIOR TRIM»(/audi/a4/b6-2000-2006/remont/gauges-instrument-panels/#body-interior) «70 - INTERIOR TRIM»(/audi/a4/b6-2000-2006/remont/gauges-instrument-panels/#body-interior-cabriolet) for BODY INTERIOR - CABRIOLET .
- Remove rear seat bench --> «72 - SEAT - FRAMES»(/audi/a4/b6-2000-2006/remont/gauges-instrument-panels/#body-interior) «72 - SEAT - FRAMES»(/audi/a4/b6-2000-2006/remont/gauges-instrument-panels/#body-interior-cabriolet) for BODY INTERIOR - CABRIOLET .
- Remove speaker cover and speaker.
- Raise all windows.
- Loosen nuts - arrows -.
- Adjust parallelism or side window height to door window by moving side window.
- Tighten nuts.
Scheme 379
Side window distance, checking
- Open convertible top.
- Raise side windows.
- Open both doors.
- Using a tape measure on inner edge of side windows - arrow - , measure distance of side windows to each other.
- Distance - a - = 1169 -1171 mm.
Note. Because this measurement cannot determine symmetry to both windows, the window that is still noticeable after all pre-adjustments is adjusted in case of a deviation from the dimension.

- Remove speaker cover and speaker.
- Loosen nut - arrow -.
- Adjust window angle with Side Window Installation Tool V.A.G 1739 «Angle, adjusting»(/audi/a4/b6-2000-2006/remont/door-locks-anti-theft-systems/#body-exterior-cabriolet) .
